Kenya Airways was established by the Government of Kenya on 22 January 1977, following the collapse of the East African Union and the consequent folding of East African Airways.[1] It first flew on 4 February 1977 servicing the London–Nairobi route with a Boeing 707–321 leased from British Midland Airways.[1][2] A year later, the airline's network comprised five domestic and 16 international destinations.[3] In July 1980, the airline's international network consisted of Addis Ababa, Athens, Bombay, Cairo, Copenhagen, Frankfurt, Jeddah, Kampala, Karachi, Khartoum, London, Lusaka, Mauritius, Mogadishu, Rome, Salisbury, Seychelles and Zürich; four Kenyan cities (Kisumu, Malindi, Mombasa and Mumias) were also served.[4]
In June 2012, the carrier announced the suspension of services to Rome and Muscat as part of cost-cutting measures following a 50% fall in profit for FY2011/12.[5][6] Abuja was added to the network in June 2014.[7][8] Delhi was terminated in November 2014.[9] In July 2016, the route to Livingstone, Zambia was extended to Cape Town, South Africa.[10] As at July 2016[update], Kenya Airways served 54 destinations, 44 of them in Africa.[11]
In October 2018, Kenya Airways became the fifth African airline to serve the US market when a route to New York–JFK was inaugurated.[12]
